Building the Home Lab Kubernetes Playground Blog Series

Hi Everyone, I wanted to start sharing some of the content and learning paths I have been taking to get a better grasp on Kubernetes and Cloud Native technologies.

First of all I am going to be putting my learning and findings on this page as I continue to navigate these new technologies.

And then I will keep adding if possible to this post with the latest blog posts.

Part 1 - Choosing your platform

Part 2 - Setting up your Kubernetes cluster

Part 3 - Playing with stateless workloads

Part 4 - Setting up dynamic shared storage

Part 5 - Helm & MinIO

Part 6 - Context is important

Part 7 - Load Balancing your Kubernetes Home Lab with MetalLB

Part 8 - Deploying KubeApps the visual marketplace for all your Kubernetes Apps

Part 9 – A Mission Critial App - Pacman

Part 10 – Backups in a Kubernetes world

I have probably up to parts noted down and will try and keep this up to date as a post moving forward and if that is possible and as I continue my learning in this area.

I would love to get your feedback useful links to add or things we should share with the community. You can also find me over on Twitter @MichaelCade1

Too bad this is just a set of links! I would have really liked posts on dev.to! (you can post on your own website and push the feed to dev.to too if you'd like)

Ah ok.... sorry didn’t know. I will look into it and keep this updated with links but look at how I can feed these to dev.

All good, that was easy actually just use RSS to import them and then they are here. Any feedback welcome on the posts.
